Stockley Academy pupils win athletics contest

Posted by Chris Longhurst on Feb 18, 09 03:58 PM in Schools/colleges

SPEEDY pupils at Stockley Academy emerged victorious from a nail-bitingly close athletics competition.

The Academy in Park View Road, Yiewsley, hosted the latest round of the Borough Schools Indoor Athletics Competition last Wednesday (11/2), winning in the end by the narrowest of margins.

The competition was for year seven pupils, and events included relays, individual sprint and long distance running, long jump, triple jump and high jump.

Louise Du Plessis, sports teacher at Stockley Academy, said: "It went really well the children gave it their all, it was very competitive, and really tense."

The Stockley Academy team finished on 466 points, ahead of Vyners School pupils on 464, Uxbridge High on 463 and Harlington on 462.

The team now go through to the next round where they will compete against winners from elsewhere in the borough.
